music: i play acoustic and electric guitar, and the drums, when i find the time and the necessities. i enjoy attending shows/concerts as i see fit. i watch a lot of movies. i love reading books, i'm trying to catch up on the stack of material i've piled high on my nightstand. i love the outdoors, road trips, camping, hiking, swimming, the ocean, backpacking, rafting, snowboarding, skateboarding, computers, buying things, bridge jumping, staying up late, going out late, nintendo, biking, and more. lately i've become quite the astronomy lover. it's currently one of my favorite things. i like jamba juice and baja fresh and chipotle, on occasion seafood. i enjoy shopping at trader joe's. high pulp orange juice rules. and i love black licorice. oh and dimple records anyone? best record store near me.
